Ada's vocabulary and ability to use new words in different situations continuously amazes me. We're starting to have funny fledgling toddler conversations. The kind I thought were always fabricated to make the kid look super cute or the parent cool. Thing is, I can't make this sort of stuff up!

The other day I was changing Ada's diaper before her nap. She grabbed my left elbow and, without the slightest hesitation, barked "ROUGH!" I didn't hear it correctly at first, but then she rubbed my elbow and said it again.

"Rrrrrrough!"

So, when BlogHer offered me the opportunity to try out new Vaseline® Spray & Go Moisturizer Total Moisture®, I decided it might be well worth my while. I mean, things are BAD on the skincare front if your toddler is pointing out your sandpapery areas. I imagine all of those arm-bearing shirts aren't looking too great on me with this summer weather.

The stuff sprays right on and is immediately absorbed into the skin. That's the claim on the bottle, and that's exactly my experience with the product.

My skin feels softer right after application--even the roughest parts. The moisturizer feels lightweight, which is especially nice in this heat. I tend to forgo lotions and creams in the summer months because they feel so confining -- I HATE putting on traditional lotions because my hands just feel disgusting afterward.

Being that it's a, well, spray, using Vaseline Spray & Go Moisturizer has made it easier to moisturize every day. It's a quick part of my routine since I can put my clothes on the second I apply it to myself.

And Vaseline Spray & Go gets more than just the top layer of skin -- it moisturizes deeply to get the job done. Overall, it works great and is convenient to use! I can't wait for the day when there's a smaller version so I can carry it around with me in my purse.

Whether or not Ada notices -- as she's likely moved onto critiquing other things, like my greasy third-day hair -- my once scratchy, gross elbows are now ready to bare. My knees, as you can imagine, have also had quite a transformation.

I'm thrilled with the results, and with the ease of application, I can see keeping up this routine.
